Alison Sanza‟s Literature class presented her with a beautiful heart shaped pendant. On it was engraved the TobiasWolfe quote “I could not, cannot, put pen to paper without having her beside me.” There could be no moreprecious or perfect memento for a teacher of Literature. Their gift was a serious and significant gesture. However,to show that Brunswick students are funny as well as warm, the Literature class also presented Alison with a“Checkov‟s Homeboy” T Shirt.So many Year 12 students showed a similar thoughtfulness to their teachers. My reflection to the students at theGraduation was that it is perhaps only if you become a teacher yourself that you can ever truly appreciate thesignificance of their thoughtful gifts and words.Alison, Oki & Graeme in their very special T ShirtsBSC senior acoustic band plays at Veri KokoBSC Bands Perform at Veri KokoOn Sunday morning I was very proud to listen to our senior acoustic band play at Veri Koko, a new café in SydneyRoad.
